Shiny stuff for video games.

My modem went LOL WHAT DSL? on the 24th, so I've been compleeeetely offline from then until early this evening when my guy brought home a replacement. I've managed to skim but have otherwise given up on catching up. Haha, and I thought people weren't posting much what with it being summer. XD

Aaaanyhow, it was also mostly past my heat tolerance level and I was dealing with Annoying Health Issues: Medication Fail Edition, so getting things done = not happening. Instead, I buried myself in the delightful pixellated goodness of 16-bit jRPGs. :D Let's hear it for sprite-based games! (If you're wondering: the end bit of Dragon Quest 5 (Translated), Dragon Quest 6 (translated), the end bit of Earthbound, Mother 3 (translated), and most of Final Fantasy 4. Which is some seriously scary amount of gaming, but made less so by the blessed fast forward function on emulators. I'm ruined for playing on consoles forever thanks to that little function. XD)

So, er, don't hold your breath on mesh replacements, all right? XD I'll get back to them, but right now my focus needs to be on my SS gift, as 80% of my research time got eaten by 'net!fail. >:|

It was hot enough that if it made it so I couldn't sit still with a wet towel over my shoulders and a fan pointed at me, it wasn't getting done. (I am a total heat wuss; 80F kiiiiills me. Then again, I define swimming weather as starting out at 68F air temp or 59F water temp, whichever comes first. :D) Even my normally bouncy cats spend most of the over-72 days draped at length across the kitchen floor.

They do say you can tell the heat of the day by the length of the cat.

80 is about my limit for doing anything productive in a non-air-conditioned environment, too, so I'm lucky we've been having a weirdly cool summer. ... And I just remembered I need to crop some pics for you...
